Welcome to this website written by, and for, couples in which each of the partners belongs to a different Christian denomination - we also have your (and our) clergy very much in mind as well. We are often referred to as Interchurch Families (or by the more general term “mixed marriages” - especially in the Roman Catholic church).
Although interchurch couples are united in their faith and their marriage, they can sometimes face spiritual challenges and needless difficulties through lack of up-to-date information despite the enormous advances in the approach, and even the rules, of our churches in recent years.
The purpose of the following pages is to make sure that interchurch couples and anyone who is supporting them, has easy access to that information – especially priests, ministers and pastors.
Support is also available from the Association of Interchurch Families. Founded in 1968 it provides; a Support Network, an Information Service for interchurch couples and those concerned with their pastoral care and a Voice in the Churches – by keeping the pastoral needs of interchurch families on the agenda of church leaders and communities – at all levels.
